Dec 13, 2010 at 22:36 comment added MPelletier Many tags will be interesting for the move, such as discussion and recommendation. But ultimately, no absolute rule.
Dec 10, 2010 at 18:07 comment added user149432 @Will: more often than not if a question was duplicated on Programmers.SE, people used the exact same title. I've been able to find the appropriate duplicate on either site by doing straight title searches.

Dec 10, 2010 at 13:55 comment added user1228 Can somebody explain to me how I can magically know a question is going to be closed as dupe on PSE before I migrate it? I don't like dumping SO problems on other SE sites, so if anybody could share this particular algorithm with me I'll be sure to apply it before migrating.

Dec 9, 2010 at 19:44 comment added Bill the Lizard Mod @Ether: We don't have a migration path yet from SO -> Programmers yet. I assume this will be the 5th path set up on SO once Programmers gets out of beta, but let's wait to flag things until the migration path is in place. Thanks.
Dec 9, 2010 at 18:47 comment added Ether Is it too soon to start flagging questions for migration, e.g. stackoverflow.com/questions/4401481/… ?
Dec 9, 2010 at 0:21 comment added Jeff Atwood StaffMod @lance too bad use of the subjective tag was itself subjective, making the tag a random chance at best
Dec 8, 2010 at 23:26 comment added Lance Roberts Too bad we don't have the subjective tag to track all those down.

Dec 8, 2010 at 23:08 comment added Shog9 Staff (And yeah, this is something folks should have considered when re-posting hugely-popular questions from SO on P.SE - if they didn't, and want to complain about their copy-pasted answers being demoted now, then they've no one to blame but themselves...)
Dec 8, 2010 at 23:06 comment added Shog9 Staff @ChrisF: only if the answers were worthless to begin with, and/or are already duplicated on P.SE. However, even then migrating and merging have some value: existing links will redirect to the new question rather than dying.

Dec 8, 2010 at 22:59 comment added ChrisF @Shog9 - If the topic was reasked on Programmers then it was truly worthwhile, but there seems little point in merging in old answers.
Dec 8, 2010 at 22:57 comment added Shog9 Staff @ChrisF: why? Either the topic is worthwhile (somewhere...) or it's not - why leave them here to confuse new users?
Dec 8, 2010 at 22:55 comment added waffles Mod @ChrisF, this is really tricky, we do not want to keep questions that do not belong on SO on SO. In some cases there may be value in migrating and merging, but if there is not value in having the question on Programmers ... then it should simply be closed / deleted on the SO side IMHO

Dec 8, 2010 at 22:53 comment added ChrisF Please bear in mind that a significant number of questions might well have been reasked already. There's no point in migrating a question only to have it closed as a duplicate. Also consider the constructive question guide too.
